I want to plant water lilies in my dam, but need to protect from yabbies. How can I do this?
Yabbies are like a kind of small crayfish that are native to Australia. They can apparently be very destructive & dig up plants, eat leaves/flowers, etc of water lilies. There are lots in our dam & eradication isn’t an option. So I need to come up with some kind of protection. The only idea we’ve had so far was to buy some thin wire or mesh, with holes small enough to let water through but not yabbies. Then to make that like a kind of giant bowl and put it into the dam… and plant the water lilies in big buckets (with small holes drilled to let water through) inside the wire bowl. The wire would need to protrude above the water level at least a bit, so as to stop the yabbies just swimming over it. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Syphilis: How You Can Protect Yourself
Syphilis is just one of many sexually transmitted diseases that seem to continually plague mankind. Syphilis is a disease that is spread through sexual contact or even through open sore contact with a person that has this disease and has a skin rash. If you have an open wound or a sore in your mouth and you engage in oral sex with someone who has syphilis, you stand a good chance of getting this disease. Syphilis can also be passed on to an unborn child if the mother happens to have this sexually transmitted disease while pregnant.
